Saquon Barkley (hamstring) has been ruled OUT for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, per @JClarkNBCS. https://t.co/wqi6H Via @YahooSports on X

What happened: John Clark confirmed the final status downgrade for Sunday's game. Saquon Barkley was previously classified as week-to-week.

Why it matters: The absence removes a core component of the offensive backfield. His continued unavailability shifts the rushing workload to the remaining active runners.

By the numbers: Barkley recorded 280 carries for 1,140 yards and seven touchdowns over 16 games in 2025.

What to watch: The team will evaluate his progress ahead of Week 7.
